# Get lead

> Retrieves one Lead Ads lead.

`metaAds.getLead` retrieves one Lead Ads lead.

```ts automations/meta-ads-get-lead.automation.ts theme={null}
import { automation, onDashboardRun } from "automate.ax"
import { metaAds } from "automate.ax/meta-ads"

export default automation("Get lead", () => {
  onDashboardRun({ title: "Get lead" })
  const result = metaAds.getLead({ leadId: "lead-id", pageId: "page-id" })
  // Use result in the next advertising, reporting, or delivery operation.
})
```

Pass the Page that owns the lead so Automate.ax can resolve its Page access token. Lead availability and retention follow Meta's Lead Ads rules. Optional second argument `{ account }` selects a static project account binding.

Returns attribution and captured field values for the lead.
